Noticeboard

Monday 15th January 2018 - We are currently experiencing problems with our phone lines and apologise for the inconvenience caused.

Please be advised that due to a shortage of GP's, we have temporarily capped our lists and are currently not accepting new registrations.

Click here to see how you can help our receptionists deal with your request in the most appropriate way.

Please note due to changes in processing, urine samples will not be accepted after 12.00 o'clock. Please call between 2.00pm and 4.30pm to enquire about your test results as our reception staff will have more time to deal with your request between these times.

New Patient Registration

Patients who are new to the area and live within our practice boundary (Ravenside roundabout, Manchester Road Ninfield, Catsfield and Hooe) can enquire at reception regarding registration processes. As it often takes sometime for records to be forwarded from your former practice all newly registered patients will be asked to complete a health questionnaire.

If you are from outside the EU, or are on a spouse, student or work permit visa, proof of passport and visa is required for all new patients when registering with the practice.

Medical treatment is available from the date of registration. Please contact reception for further information.

Please note that if you are already registered with a doctors practice in the area, a letter needs to be posted / handed in at reception expressing the reason why you are requesting a change from your current doctor.
